To drive a sportscar, you have to think of others.
We usually think ahead.
The new Panamera S Hybrid | Balance
Lighting system.
The standard Bi-Xenon headlights
with headlight cleaning system and
automatic dynamic range adjust-
ment ensure uniform illumination
of the road with both dipped and
main beam. Also fit ted as standard
are LED day time running lights.
The Porsche Dynamic Light System
(PDLS) is available as an option. Its
dynamic cornering light function
swivels the headlights towards the
inside of a bend based on steering
angle and driving speed and the
static cornering lights activate the
auxiliary headlights to illuminate
more of the road at tight bends
and turns. Put simply, when you
enter a bend the road ahead is
illuminated immediately. PDLS also
adapts the light distribution to the
speed and visibilit y conditions. The result is increased safet y – not
only at night and on bends.
Body design.
The fully galvanised light weight
body made from steel and alumin-
ium provides a highly resilient
passenger cell for protection in the
event of an impact. A longitudinal
and transverse frame structure
absorbs deformation energy,
disperses impact forces and thus
minimises deformation of the
interior. A rigid front bulkhead
cross member reduces deforma-
tion of the foot wells – for bet ter
protection of the feet and legs of
the occupants.
Pedestrian safet y is enhanced
by the active bonnet system. If
sensors in the front apron detect a collision, the system raises the
rear of the bonnet which can help
to reduce the risk of injury.
Airbags.
The new Panamera S Hybrid is
fit ted as standard with nine full-size
and knee airbags for the driver
and passenger, and the Porsche
Side Impact Protection System
(POSIP). This comprises side
airbags in the front seats, curtain
airbags over the complete roof
frame and side windows from the
A to the C pillar, and side impact
protection in the doors. Side
airbags for the rear are available
as an option.
Balance
Performance and safet y. Not a contradiction, but a promise.
Only when you feel safe, can you use power with conviction.
